“Human DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created.” Bill Gates

I just was surfing the internet, reading some things about Bill Gates, and I came across this quote:

We have all had teachers who made a difference. I had a great chemistry teacher in high school who made his subject immensely interesting. Chemistry seemed enthralling compared to biology. In biology, we were dissecting frogs – just hacking them to pieces, actually – and our teacher didn’t explain why. My chemistry teacher sensationalized his subject a bit and promised that it would help us understand the world. When I was in my twenties, I read James D. Watson’s “Molecular Biology of the Gene” and decided my high school experience had misled me. The understanding of life is a great subject. Biological information is the most important information we can discover, because over the next several decades it will revolutionize medicine. Human DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created. It seems amazing to me now that one great teacher made chemistry endlessly fascinating while I found biology totally boring. (Gates, The Road Ahead, Penguin: London, Revised, 1996 p. 228)

It was interesting reading about Bill Gates’ teachers, but, then I saw the sentence in bold italics:

Human DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created.

Wow. DNA, which is a teensy tinsy molecule inside each cell of each living thing, including humans, is more advanced than computer software?

Yes indeed.

But, we are told by mainstream science that life developed over millions of years by a process of time and chance. How could one molecule in each cell of a randomly generated life-form be so complex?

Perhaps mainstream science is wrong and life is not an end product of a process of time and chance. Perhaps it was designed by God, as I have believed for 13 years, and have been telling people in my website.

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1

(See My Testimony for how I came to believe in God.)

Evolutionists like to sweep the topic of the Origin of Life under the rug

Evolution, as it is defined these days, merely concerns itself with Change over Time, not the origin of life.

But, change from what? There has to be life existing in the first place for it to Change over Time. (See my page: The Origin of Life: How did life begin? DNA could not have happened by chance)

Logically, evolution cannot be an alternative for creation (God creating life) until evolution concerns itself with the Origin of Life.

So, why doesn’t evolution concern itself with the origin of life? There is a very good reason: There is no proof for the commonly held belief that life started as a result of time and chance.

There is not any proof that life began without God’s help. There is speculation, conjecture and imagination, but no proof.

I will be told that many Christians believe in evolution. The church unfortunately has compromised and accepted, for the most part, what evolutionists teach as fact, and that is very sad. (Also see: Using the Dog-Kind of Animal to Disprove Evolution)

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1

Evolution is called Change over Time but, each minor change is erroneously called a new species

When Charles Darwin voyaged on the Beagle, he saw variations of finches on various of the Galapagos Islands. Basically, the only variation was the size of the beak. What he observed was a fact. Over time, different conditions can make variations in different groups of animals.

This fact is what allows the American Kennel Club to name new breeds (variations) of dogs. Variations of dogs develop when different genes in a population are isolated from other gene pools. The isolated gene pools start to take on a “family” resemblance to each other, same as families of people look similar.

Eventually, with enough inbreeding, a new breed of dog that looks different from every other breed of dog, will develop. But, guess what – the end product is still a dog. Nothing evolved into anything else.

But, when this happens in the wild, due to various circumstances, it is called evolution, and the resulting variations are given new species names.

That is all Charles Darwin saw — isolated populations of finches that lived on different islands.

Then, because he wanted to explain away God as creator, he concluded that since these birds looked different, that all life on earth is related to each other and changed gradually from one to the other.

That took a big stretch of the imagination. But, the only other alternative is God, the Creator. Some people will go a long way to avoid believing something they do not want to believe.

There are many types of variations in all types of animals. These minor variations are given “species” names. Now, the definition of species is that they can only interbreed with others in the same group.

But, people who give new names to new species do not bother to find out if it is indeed a NEW species, in a genetic population unique to itself.

Dogs, wolves and coyotes (God’s dog-kind) can interbreed, grizzly bears and polar bears (God’s bear-kind) can interbreed, lions and tigers (God’s cat-kind) can interbreed. This is a very short list of animals that can interbreed.

All of this interbreeding gives evidence that God created the basic kinds of animals, and then the variations developed as the animals moved throughout the world, getting in isolated populations by choice or by geography.

Evolution is a faith without any proof.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Reasons Why I Believe in God: Outline of X-Evolutionist.com

I made this website to tell you that there are scientific reasons to believe in God. The information on this site is what I learned that convinced me that God exists. The following is a list of some of the pages on this website. These pages show the scientific evidence that proved to me that there is a God:

My Christian Testimony: How I Came to Believe in God

Here is the story about how I came to believe in God. I had lived over 40 years before I learned there was scientific evidence that God exists. Read More

How Do Dinosaurs Fit in With Creation? Are dinosaurs alive today?

The smallest dinosaur was about the size of a chicken. Reptiles that lived with dinosaurs still live today. Iguanas, up to six feet long, and Komodo dragons, up to ten feet long, are not called dinosaurs only because dinosaurs are supposedly extinct. There is no problem with dinosaurs fitting in with creation by God. Read More

Noah’s Ark and the Global Flood

The Global flood as described in the Bible caused the fossil record. The Ark was very large, and had room for representatives of all kinds of animals. Read More

Charles Darwin described the problems with his theory in his book “Origin of Species”

Charles Darwin gave many reasons why his theory is not true. This page has quotes from his book, Origin of Species, stating what evidence is missing. Read More

The Origin of Life: How did life begin? DNA could not have happened by chance

The cell and the DNA molecule are too incredibly complex to have happened by chance. DNA is made in the cell, and the cell is made from the instructions in the DNA. The cell must have been designed. Read More

What is Science? Is scientific fact determined by majority rule?

Scientists used to examine evidence and then make conclusions. But, the definition of what is science has been redefined by some to insist that everything have a natural explanation before the evidence is examined. Making a conclusion before examining the evidence is not scientific. Read More

Most of what people call “evolution” is really genetics

Genetic variability is mistakenly called evolution. For something to truly evolve, it has to acquire genetic material that its parents or other ancestors didn’t already have. It has to acquire new genetic material that isn’t already in its genes. Read More

Why Are There Evolution Frauds if Evolution is a Proven Fact?

Fraudulent evidence is used as proof for evolution. It is printed in scientific books and magazines and taught in textbooks. If actual evidence existed to prove the evolution from particles to people, it would not be necessary to make it up. Read More

Using the Dog-Kind of Animal to Disprove Evolution

I use the dog-kind, dogs, coyotes, wolves, etc, as an example that animals are in distinct groups, such as dogs cats or bears, with no overlapping between groups. But, that each group has a lot of varieties that are able to mate and produce fertile offspring (the definition of the term species). There is no evidence in living things, or in the fossil record, that any basic kind of animal changed into any other basic kind of animal. Read More

The Fossil Record: Evidence of the world-wide flood of the Bible

Living things fossilized after a global flood. Dead animals do not just lie there and wait to be fossilized. They rot or get eaten. Fossilization requires immediate covering with sediment. The minerals gradually replace the living tissue. The fossils give no evidence for the gradual development of animals over time. Only minor differences within species can be found. With no evidence for evolution that only leaves creation by God. Read More

Christians: Jesus was a Creationist

Jesus believed and taught a literal and recent creation. Christians, at the very least, should should believe Him. Read More

1 Peter 3:15 Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.

My Favorite Bible Translation

I read the New International Version of the Bible. I came to believe in God late in life, and I find this version to be very easy to read. It is written in modern English as we speak it today. The NIV website says this about it:

The New International Version is a completely new translation of the Holy Bible made by more than a 100 scholars working directly from the best-available Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts.

You can read more about this version here: About the New International Version Bible.
